"Jesus, My Father, The CIA, and Me A Memoir of Sorts" by Ian Morgan Cron Book review by Candace Duiker

 My second review is of "Jesus, My Father, the CIA and Me A Memoir of Sorts" by Ian Morgan Cron.  Wow, this book is an emotional, biographical offering of the Author Ian MOrgan Cron's life.  Cron documents his Father's fight with the bottle and his own hurt it wrought in his relationship with his Dad.  It's a real dance, but God does show up too.  There are moments in this book when Ian Morgan Cron in his teenage angst leaves your heart haunted for him.  His words make you feel like those boys who were walking by the railroad tracks in the movie "Stand By Me," as he struggles with whether to drink or smoke pot.  He makes it with the strength of his beliefs, even though he finds out his Dad works as a CIA agent. This book is one to be reread and you want to really 'go' it with the Author.  It's real, honest and you just gotta know the how and why his Dad was a CIA agent.
